NY Medicaid Electronic Health Records (EHR) Incentive Program Update
The NY Medicaid EHR Incentive Program provides financial incentives to eligible practitioners and
hospitals to promote the transition to EHRs. Provider practices that use EHRs are in the forefront of
improving quality, reducing costs, and addressing health disparities. Since December 2011 over
$487.5 million in incentive funds have been distributed within 10,100 payments to New York State
Medicaid providers.
For more information about the EHR Incentive Program, we encourage you to visit the program
website at www.emedny.org/meipass/ or attend one of the informational webinars hosted by the
NYS Department of Health.
